He had barely slept the previous night. Hercules was shivering so much that he almost felt his bed was filled with ice. It was strange. He'd never felt anything like it. somehow he assumed that it was because of the issue at hand. Was that really it? had Audrey Peterson become such a problem that she couldn't find any sleep? of course she was. But when he did get little sleep, Audrey asked a recurring question. Why do you choose to hate me? Why do you choose to hate me?It had driven him mad. He didn't like to be the one feeling vulnerable. He did not like to be the one feeling broken. He was a man of power. Used to being in control. But the idea of another person taking over his heart did not sit right with him. Especially if the person was nothing more than a worthless servant in his opinion. When the sun Rose and its rays pierced through the curtains of his room, he had already been up and dressed. Hercules opened the door and found his father standing right at the other side
Hercules immediately left the throne room, his aim was to find the Servant quarters and have a slight conversation with his mate. He still needed to dictate the rules to her. not only as a servant but also as a submissive mate. it was out of the question. He was not going to compromise submission for anything. casually he noticed Agnes watching him from the top of her house. She had a beautiful balcony that he had set up for her and she lived in a reasonable home other than the other pack citizens. She was well off. Hercules cannot remember the last time he came into the Servant quarters. He hates the place. it's usually so tiny and untidy. The Interiors are poorly done and the workers who constructed it did not do quite as good a job as he had expected. but then again he didn't. because the Wolves that were meant to stay here or not were very important to him. While he had all the resources to make sure that the servants stayed in better places he chose to bring those funds to other
ALPHA HERCULES I have been running for almost an hour now. I need to block out the voices in my head. to allow my wolf to take charge. to be free. so much had happened within a short span of time that I felt like I was suffocating.I had gotten word that Audrey had just woken up. On the other hand my father couldn't get off my back. pestering me over and over again asking questions about who she was and why she was so important. It has been exactly two days since we found her unconscious. While I expect her to go back to normal servant duties, I am worried about her health and safety. was that right? of course it wasn't. because I, as an Alpha should not worry for a worthless mate. Today morning I had received yet again the second reminder of an invitation from Alpha Jeremy. I had not responded to the previous one and now I still doubted if I wanted to go. A couple of days ago I was in the same situation as that man. I have not found out that my mate was some Savant. but now I am re
AUDREY'S POV When I opened my eyes, I had found myself in unfamiliar territory. The room was not more beautiful and magnificent than the Servant quarters. it smelled of lavender. for some reason I could also catch the scent of my mate as if he was around. if only things are not going down that way. but as they say, if wishes were horses beggars would ride.I had eaten one of the most delicious meals just a couple of moments ago. I had not even expected to be given the luxury of eating before everyone else. The bed I slept on was warm. much warmer than every other place I have ever laid my head on.“You mind explaining what all of that was about?’’ the hoarse voice startles me. His scent engulfs the atmosphere, filling my nostrils and causing a tingling sensation between my thighs. I gasp as I stare at him. as handsome as ever. the things that I wanted to do with him…“her..Alpha Hercules…” he stands a short distance away from me. acting like he's afraid of me.‘’ I don't know what y
AUDREY'S POV The Beta did not speak any other word to me as he brings me towards the door of the same servant room. I can feel my heart beating quickly. I don't know what I'm going to do. I can't defend myself against so many girls, even if I wanted to.‘ What are you waiting for? An invitation to get in?” the question startled me. But not as much as they've had hatred directly plastered on his face. I had seen that face a million times among people looking at me like I have done something so wrong to them. Like I was the enemy.Was I not the victim?I open the door and get quickly finished off.“ thank you for bringing me h..” but the man had already left. Now I'm all alone waiting for when the girls are going to come back but when they did I knew that life would soon go back to being miserable. what was I even expecting. it would seem that my prayers have been answered much quicker than i expected. When I tried to shut the door behind me, it was pushed open yet again and the
ALPHA HERCULES The announcement had been made before my mother approached. With the guards open the doors, I set aside the documents that I had been looking into. Mother approached from the entrance. With a smile on her lips but a restless face. I was willing to bet that this conversation would go with the same direction as with my father's. but at least giving her the chance seemed much better than pushing her away before she had the opportunity to say anything.“ Hercules, don't you have any more time to see your mother?’ She scolded, her voice of motherly echoing through the walls of the throne room. The smile on my face doesn't disappear. God, I love this woman.I rise from the throne and move towards her slowly. She extends her arms and I take the opportunity to embrace her. I could tell that she was happy. she wasn't normally in this mood a lot of times. While I wanted to question what had made her like this I felt that bringing forward such a question was designed by the begi
AUDREY'S POV I jolted from the bed with sweat dripping from the Pores of my skin. Sleep has been so good. even much better than the wreck I had taken while in the doctor's office. They have slept in my own bed. and I've never had a bed of my own. The only thing that I was putting up with and still not well accustomed to that pack. Maybe it was for the best making adjustments. Maybe it was for the best that Hercules hated me because I didn't have to fulfill his expectations of me. I suddenly realized that it is quiet. When I glanced around the room all the beds were empty. no one is there. I stepped down from the bed and moved towards the big window in the middle of the wall. The curtains are already open. My eyes widened when I saw that it was already 12:00. the sun was well shining and it had dropped at an angular position. At Black Diamond Pack , I had taught myself to tell time just by the position of the Sun or the weather in general. because no one else was going to tell us th
Picking my clothes up from the floor I bring the uniform close to my body and try to cover myself.“There's nothing special.” he casually states. He steps into the room and slowly inspects it. his eyes dance around the brains of the other servants and then to mine. I can tell that he is looking for mistakes.“You've not made your bed. not only are you a worthless servant but you're also untidy.’’ His words didn't hurt as much as I expected them to. because at the end of the day I had shielded myself and expected the worst.“Get dressed.” I look around the room. There was no bathroom. The only places where the others haven't showered was the large bathroom Hall where we were all supposed to shower together. I remain looking at him. I can't help but let my eyes wander from his lips and down towards his muscular body. The way his royal clothes hug his body tightly. The way his arms are molded.He looks like a gift from the gods. like a god himself. how the hell had the moon goddess real
SUMMARY ____ She was an omega of the lowest rank in her whole pack. Maltreated and reminded every single day that her existence was nothing useful in the pack. That night , she attempted her first escape from the pack but she had bumped into this man. A man that smells of power and he was going through his transformation..Scared, She was left with no other option than to escape from the pack. In her pack, there's a big festival going on that requires the Alpha of the neighboring pack to visit. AUDREY was scared, she hadn't seen the face of his man but she recognized his scent and she rotted to meet him again. Hearing him scream over to her that he was his mate was one ridiculous thing to hear. She knows nothing about mate, even if she do.. love isn't for her. All her days and years in the pack, she had believed being mated to someone to be just nothing but a fairy tale. With difficulty, Audrey pushes herself to stop thinking about this strange man. When the festival had b
Later that evening, Audrey walked over to May's chamber. May had been particularly odd these days and Audrey intended to find out what was wrong with her.After several knocks, the door opened and May engulfed Audrey in a warm hug the moment she laid eyes on her."So, how is life with Hercules?"May asked as she closed the door, while Audrey walked over to the bed to sit."Mammon came to have lunch and he forced me to reveal the secret to Hercules."May had gotten wind of the information about Audrey's supernatural abilities. At first, she was surprised but eventually came to the understanding that Audrey used her powers for good."Hercules seemed pissed and so I needed him to cool off before speaking to him."May stared at Audrey with a sad look. She walked up to her friend and hugged her; she didn't want Audrey to feel any more pain again."Uhm, Audrey?"May called, while they were still hugging. "I have something to tell you."Audrey released herself from the hug and stared at her frien
"Alpha, this would be the tenth person that has died a strange death in the land. We need to find a way to stop all these deaths from occurring else we are bound to be headed for doom"Martin revealed.It was the fifth day after the new moon had risen and members of the air pack were constantly raising to the reality that as the day passed, some of their pack members kept getting caught up to the cold hands of death. Hercules has been in a state of dilemma, everyone was crying out to him to save them from the horrific strings of death. It was something that Hercules knew was beyond ordinary. "Tell every member of the pack that I assure them that a solution would be found to this strange death occurrence in no time. I would ensure that no death is fully recorded again. All I need is time"Hercules assured his Beta Martins. "My Lord, if we keep making promises, we would become objects of ridicule and that is not what we are my lord, we are men with valor and sagacity and so, we must ac
While they continued talking, the door opened and a very sad Audrey stepped into the room. There was a look of sadness that had taken over her countenance and Hercules rushed over to meet her, while May stepped out. "I am sorry Audrey, the pack knows you as their Luna and you got a warm reception. It is only better that you continue what has been started"Hercules pleaded and Audrey refused to speak to him. He was feeling so much guilt, that he got up from the bed and was about heading out, when Audrey stopped him in his tracks. "I would take the hundred whip from you. However I need you to make me one promise"Hercules turned around to face Audrey, waiting to know what the promise was all about. "I need you to make the whipping really hard, the same type that is given to a slave, when they are being punished" Hercules stared at Audrey in disbelief, his intentions all along was to make the whipping mild and with the promise given, he knew that Audrey was only trying to make him feel g
"He kissed you!"May asked in disbelief. Audrey was pretty much shy talking about the kiss Hercules had shared with her. "Do you know what this means Audrey? He is slowly coming to terms that you are his mate."May revealed. Hearing the words come out of May's mouth, made her anxious. If Hercules would take her as a mate, it meant that she would eventually be the Luna of the pack. Audrey was about to make a statement, when they both heard a knock on the door. May walked towards the door and Martins stood there with a smile on his face. Audrey noticed how absurd May and Martins stared at each other; things really happened while she wasn't around. "I am here because the Alpha sent a message to Audrey."Audrey looked up at Martin. He had a smile on his face. He pulled out a letter from his pocket and handed it over to May. "Congratulations Audrey."Audrey was confused and was about to ask a question, right before he would close the door. May tore out the wraps around the letter and flipp
"Audrey?"The voice became even more clearer. Instantly, her eyes flung open and they immediately landed on May. "Thank goodness, you are awake!' May yelled and hugged her friend, crying into her shoulders. Things looked particularly different for May as her hair had suddenly grown a little bit longer. "How long have I been out?"May released herself from the hug and stared at her friend. "You have been out for three full blown moons."Audrey stared at May in disbelief. After her return, May ensured that Audrey stayed in the room for some days, before allowing her out of the chambers. According to May, Audrey needed to be fully recovered before she could continue her task as maid. On the day Audrey was finally given the chance to walk out of the room, Audrey decided to take a stroll around the mansion. Nothing had changed for the three full moons that she had disappeared, only the construction of the mansion, which made Audrey surprised to see that the building had been increased, ra
Meanwhile, Audrey was in search of Sharon as the rest of the rogues and her mate raided the palace. She wanted nothing more than to have her head on the platter of gold. "There is no sign of her here."Zedicus said, rushing to meet his mate. The rest of the rogue came in as well. "She wouldn't have gone really far. Let's....."Right before she could complete her statement, a force pulled everyone away and they all slammed their faces to the ground. When Audrey looked up, she was bewildered by the sight before her. Sharon with a sword of fire, all dressed in a dark long robe, which gave her the mystic sense stepped in. "Who do we have here?"Sharon commented seeing Audrey get up to her feet. "Quite a long time I must say."Audrey stood her ground, staring at every part of Sharon's body. It was like staring at a dark version of the moon goddess. "Ah! and look who is here; the former Alpha's son.i am impressed by how you both pulled that diversion. I wasn't expecting it in any way."Sha
Dr. Taylor stared at Mark's figure in horror. Just when he thought he could elude an entire battle, he was left facing his worst night mares. "Please, I beg you. I am sorry for what I did."He took to begging but this only made Mark even more angry about the whole situation. Mark grabbed hold of his neck and while staring him in the eye, he choked Taylor to death in such a fashioned and dramatic manner. Once he was certain he was dead, he threw his body away. Zedicus, Audrey and the rest of the rogues all stepped outside and were surprised to see Dr. Taylor was dead. "I had to kill him thinking about all he did anyways, so both of you shouldn't give me that stare."He said, referring to the look of disbelief on Kevin and Shawn's face. "Come on now, let's head over to my apartment"Mark suggested and everyone followed suit. When they arrived at Mark's apartment, Audrey noticed someone was standing by the entrance and not just anyone, but it was Alpha Jaden's Beta. "How did you fin
"The Institute of Science and Technology here in New York city, has an underground laboratory which they used in carrying out tests that would blow your mind. Ranging from the study of viruses to how to use Bacteria to kill others." Audrey sat down, listening to the man speak."Why are you telling me all this?" The man smiled and took the last drop of his wine and stated"A group of men were captured a few years back and they sapped out their DNA and combined it with a human DNA, long story cut short, I am evidence for their creation. My name is Mark" Audrey couldn't believe it. The humans were quite dangerous than she had thought and one peculiar thing she admired about them was how their brains work."So you want to tell me that you were created by humans?" Mark nodded."The moment I was given life, there was so much that happened; I had no life of my own, I was answerable to my creator and lastly I did his bidding. One day, my master was killed by his own friend with the intention
